I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Bandwidth in May 2022
Interview
Initial phone screen with recruiter -- going over the position, basic experience/resume stuff.
Interview with software manager -- ~30 minutes going more in depth on experience/resume and technologies used in the position.
Technical panel interview -- 30 minutes with software manager, 1 hour with two senior developers on the team, 1 hour with two staff developers on the team.
All in HackerRank during a video call.
Fairly basic array-based leetcode question and REST API design question. More resume/experience questions and a fair amount of behavioral questions (tell me about a time when...)
Did not receive offer, but was suggested to interview for a different role. Was then ghosted for weeks, and had a very similar experience to a recent reviewer.
Had an interview lined up for the new position which was rescheduled with no notice an hour before the interview and then canceled outright on the rescheduled day a week later with a note that the role had been closed.
All the interviewers were nice, and I enjoyed talking with them, but the process was a mess!
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bandwidth in Oct 2022
Interview
It's important to mention that this was my first interview...I've started the interview process by having a HR and a technical discussion with a recruiter from Ireland, the overall experience was great. But, when I got to the technical interview, it's another story, so the first problem for someone with no prior experience whatsoever, is given a task to solve a problem using a digital tree... Even at the faculty they do not teach this deeply as for other algorithms. Couldn't solve it, and I moved on to the next one which was an average problem, the thing is that they've putted an accent in knowing the syntax very well, and when I wouldn't know something they would reply "How can you not know that?", and for a first time interview it lefts you with a bitter taste. To mention that there are two technical interviews, in the second one there was not a point in going to it, because they've told me that I suck.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
At the HR interview, those classic questions like: How can you solve a conflict in your team? What did you learn recently? At the technical interview I had a discussion about the projects in faculty and Agile methodology. At the technical interview? Solve this given problem using a digital tree and I remember it was something with prefixes. The second problem was something to find the maximum score in a list, the average score, and how many times someone broke his records- this was an ok problem.

Interview
Pretty standard process. First call with a recruiter, then an onsite interview with members of the team. As others have said, they expect >3 references if everything goes well. Other than that, everybody was nice and the response rate was fast.

Question 1
For the onsite part, I got ask a lot of graph/2D array questions.
